"I don't know how to tell you this," Fritz began, clearing his throat. "And I realize it's a bit late to say this now, but..."

He took a deep breath.

"I'm afraid I've never gone jewelry shopping in my life, so I'm not quite sure I'll be of much help."

The shopfront of Jasmine & Jewelry Co. was simple and clean; a rather unobtrusive place that nevertheless had a very pristine look about it. It had a black door and a wide, two pane window that displayed a rather impressive array of glittering pieces that ranged from rings to necklaces to tiaras, all of them expertly arranged so as to show off their most appealing sparkle.

Fritz turned to look at Lorne, eyebrows raised.

"Are you quite sure you're ready to head in there?'
